Chapter 1108: Chapter 954: Changing Destiny

Upon returning to the private room and sitting down again, Wang Ye smiled and said to Wang Dongdong:

"Dongdong, here are two envelopes, pick one.

In one of them, there is a cheque for one million, and if you choose this one, just take it and go. This money will be yours, no need to return it.

The other one contains a cheque for ten million, but if you choose this, you have to return the money three years later.

That is to say, you only have the right to use this ten million for three years

Moreover, this money isn’t for you to use for free; interest is needed.

Let’s calculate it at four percent interest per year, after three years, you’ll have to pay me back twelve hundred and twenty thousand!!"

Which one will you choose?"

Zhang Xiaoxi looked at Wang Ye somewhat surprised, not sure what he meant, why still let Wang Dongdong choose, wouldn’t it just be easier to give her the money?

However, she didn’t say anything, as Wang Ye must have his reasons for doing so.

This old classmate of hers, who could achieve such status and wealth in Russia within just five years as a "foreigner," his actions are not something she, a "mere mortal," could understand...

So, it was best for her to just watch from the sidelines without giving any opinions.

Wang Dongdong had already become speechless and was unable to speak.

She subconsciously thought Wang Ye was joking, seeing how serious his expression was, yet those amounts, one and ten million, seemed like nothing in Wang Ye’s eyes!

Not to mention ten million, even one million is a huge amount of money!

The property they were selling was just over three thousand per square meter, and the average housing price in the capital city of the province wasn’t even three thousand!

This means that one million could buy three three-bedroom, one living room apartments outright!

As for how many apartments ten million could buy, Wang Dongdong dared not even calculate...

Why measure it in terms of houses, it must be her "professional deformation"!

...

"You... are you serious? Why are you giving me money?"

After hesitating for a long time, Wang Dongdong finally spoke with difficulty.

Her eyes were still tightly fixed on the two kraft paper envelopes on the table, as if trying to pierce the envelopes with her gaze to see if they really contained two cheques...

Wang Ye smiled faintly, and said casually:

"Because you helped me before, and now you’re in trouble, and I happen to have the ability, so I thought I’d return the favor I owe you.

Don’t think too much, and don’t worry about me scheming anything.

This amount of money might seem huge to you, but honestly, it’s not much to me.

Xiao Xi, right?"

"Absolutely! Dongdong, rest assured, Wang Ye is really rich now... that amount of money really is nothing to him," Zhang Xiaoxi quickly nodded, vouching for Wang Ye.

Wang Dongdong looked at them both skeptically, still a bit uneasy, and further inquired:

"So... this money is from your family, right? I think it’s still not quite right..."

Wang Ye spread his hands helplessly: "I’ve already told you, it’s my own money, and it has nothing to do with anyone else. Don’t overthink it, just make your choice."

Although Wang Dongdong was still not completely reassured, she "sensibly" didn’t ask any further. She glanced at the envelope on the left, then again at the one on the right.

Seeming to make up her mind, she looked up at Wang Ye and said, "I’ll choose the ten million one!"

Wang Ye remained noncommittal, but reminded her with a smile, "This ten million isn’t free, you know. After three years, you’ll have to pay me back twelve hundred and twenty thousand, and you’ll need to write an IOU. By the way, can you tell me what you plan to do with this money?"

Having made her choice, Wang Dongdong seemed to have lifted a great weight off her shoulders, noticeably relaxing.

Her gaze was somewhat vacant as she explained, as if talking to herself:

"With this ten million, naturally, I’ll first clear the debts my family owes. We’ve owed people for so long, it’s quite embarrassing.

Previously, we didn’t have much money and the debts were mostly from relatives and friends, so I brazenly ignored the interest.

Of course, they never thought about charging us interest, knowing our family’s situation, so they haven’t pressed us to repay the principal either.

But the more they acted like this, the more embarrassed I felt about facing them.

Now that I have enough money, aside from the principal, interest should naturally be counted as well.

They are not wealthy families; they helped us when we were most in need, and I need to show gratitude.

But this won’t cost much, a total of two hundred and fifty thousand including the principal and interest should be enough.

With the rest of the money, I plan to start my own business.

You’ve seen, I’m a real estate sales consultant, so I sell houses.

So, I have a decent understanding of the industry.

From my perspective, although the real estate market isn’t very booming at the moment, in the long run, there’s huge potential in the real estate market!

The country always talks about urbanization, and although I don’t understand these big policies very well, literally speaking, doesn’t urbanization mean expanding urban areas, bringing rural people, or at least some of them, to the cities?

Since more people will be moving to cities in the future, they will need a place to live.

This means a huge demand for real estate!

Especially those wealthier small bosses from county towns, who wouldn’t want to settle down in the capital city. Since they need to settle down, they will certainly need to buy houses!

Therefore, I am very optimistic about the future of the real estate market."
